Welcome to college. You’ll be here for four years, and when you aren’t in class you’ll have a lot of free time. Food, beverages and video games cost money, though – how will you pay for them? The answer is, of course, a job. There are the typical college student jobs – working the residence [...]

Please only contribute one article per edition of the carnival. I know I wasn’t very clear with that rule early on, but I tried to make a note of it this time around on the submission page. Enacting this rule actually benefits both of us – it makes the carnival look less spammy and more [...]

For most college students, nothing tops getting money for free. Unfortunately, aside from cards in the mail or a few pennies on the ground, finding free money is difficult. Or is it?

I was happy to see that Christine over at the passionate ailurophile was finally given the trip she rightfully won. All it took was the threat of some legal action and she had her flights booked and Las Vegas hotel reservations taken care of in no time. I must admit, I never really thought of [...]

ProBlogger.net had a contest the other day where readers submitted little catchphrases and icons for the Google PageRank fiasco. Now that the contest is officially over, I’d like to toss my hat into the ring. Ladies and gentlemen, my image: Feel free to save this and post it on your own site if you’d like. [...]
